Hi guyz,
lately and after upgrading my Cpanel/WHM to the latest version, some files got corrupted and WHM and Cpanel wont respond now, so i thought i could restart it, and since WHM isnt working, i want someone to help me restart it using the SSH, what is the restart command?


Thanks in advance.

Or if you like typing...
'shutdown now -r'

:)

But that might not fix it - what error is it giving to you?

simply execute the command 'reboot'. If you type 'shutdown now -r' it will shutdown but not restart. In that case you have to give a hard boot (physically boot)

Incorrect - from 'man shutdown' here are the options pertaining to this:

-r Reboot after shutdown.

-h Halt after shutdown.

This is the Error im getting,

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request


I still didnt try restarting, cause i dont really think that it would solve the issue, and since its the only thing i could try at the moment.

I think your apache not working..

check httpd.conf, are you trying install any programs?
If you try to install any programs fail, try...
If you have cpanel u can use "Configuration File Rollback" ----> rollback files.

Hope it help...

try SSH to up 2 date for cpanel
/scripts/upcp

I dont think the apache isnt working, since all the webpages load perfectly, as well as the FTP, but when it comes to loging in the Cpanel or WHM i get the error. i updated my cPanel yesterday before it stopped working by about 3 hours, it was working fine for 3 hours from the update, i dont know what seems to be the problem.

Use

http://uaeturbo.com:2082

To access the cpanel

http://uaeturbo.com:2086

For WHM.

Seems the /whm and /cpanel entry is missing.

yea! exactly it is working, i never thought of trying that out, i thought it would be stupid of me to try such a thing, but it does work, at least ill use that as a tempoary way to access my WHM/cPanel.

Thanks A lot guyz, you have been very helpful :D .....

In your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

check following lines are present, if not add it and restart httpd

ScriptAlias /cpanel /usr/local/cpanel/base/redirect.cgi
ScriptAlias /whm /usr/local/cpanel/base/whmredirect.cgi
ScriptAlias /securewhm /usr/local/cpanel/base/swhmredirect.cgi
ScriptAlias /webmail /usr/local/cpanel/base/wredirect.cgi

ooh no, this time and after adding the lines and restarting the Apache, it never came back online :S ... i reverted to the last Apache file, cause my latest apache seems to be missing a LOT of lines.
